Office 2019 now includes the latest version of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. The Office suite for Windows users also includes Microsoft Project, Visio, Access and Publisher. According to Microsoft, the new features in Office 2019 are mainly functions that have already been integrated into Office 365 in the last three years. Overall, the pen input has been improved and added new features. In addition, new content and features have been added to each program.
For example, PowerPoint gets the Morph Transition feature, which lets you animate seamless movement from one slide to the next. An improved zoom function will also be included in the new software.
Excel gets new functions for data analysis from Microsoft. In addition, PowerPivot, a feature for demanding data models and sophisticated data analytics, has been further enhanced.
Word and Outlook now each contain a focus mode. The user should be less distracted by other programs and messages. In Outlook, the mode filters about unimportant e-mails. In Office 2019, you can also use Word in dark mode, with a new text-to-speech feature also on board.
